Whose bird brained idea was that?

As one of our stories this week reveals, someone is having fun with a new digital radio playlist featuring bird sounds. Who knows how far this format could develop? Perhaps Magpies will be the Hot Current category and bird ballads on a low night time rotation. What songs should be included in the playlist: Radio Birdman? Leonard Cohen’s Bird on a Wire? The Beatles Blackbird?

Can you help stations to refine their playlist by suggesting some more songs and sounds that could be included on these ground breaking new stations. The more bird puns the better of course!

Yes, we know it’s just filler to keep the channel open while other content is being developed, but, hey, let’s have some fun with it. Who knows, if a tv channel broadcasting gold fish in a bowl can get viewers, perhaps there is a market for a bird sounds radio channel.
